Although it might not come as a shock to most, BTS's "LOVE YOURSELF" World Tour concerts in North America sold out completely in less than three days!
There were 14 shows scheduled in Newark, Chicago, Los Angeles, Forth Worth and Oakland in the US and Hamilton in Canada.
An extra show in Los Angeles was added after the initial tour schedule was released, but they are also anticipated to sell out quickly.
Tickets are already being resold online for more than USD $1,000, but the promoters have issued a statement assuring A.R.M.Ys they'll be taking extra measures to ensure scalped tickets get cancelled.
We cannot disclose the precise method we are using to detect scalpers, but rest assured, legitimate purchases will not be affected. Please do not be concerned if you are not partaking in scalping activities. We are doing our best to address many fans' concerns! Thank you!
But fans are worried about whether they'll be considered a scalper if buying multiple tickets, or if their tickets will be taken away if they bought them from a re-seller.
What are evidenced of ticket scalping though? How are you able to distinguish from one person trying to just get multiple tickets from their friends? I genuinely would like to know just in case a fan is falsely flagged as a scalper. Let us know, thank you!
A.R.M.Ys are advising everyone to do their research and only buy from verified re-sellers or from the promoter's own website and affiliates.
Good luck to everyone still hoping to buy tickets around the world!
